Raccoon Species Specific Egg Trap

Egg TrapRaccoon Egg Trap

Before buying this trap consider the following:
1. If you think you may need instructions, this trap is NOT for you.
2. If you are not prepared to remove a captured raccoon with a restraint pole and transfer cage, then this trap is NOT for you.
3. This trap works best for people with fur-trapping experience.

This was one of the earliest species specific trap (meaning a trap designed to catch one species only) and its development was sponsored by the American Veterinary Medical Association. (For more information on the egg trap's humaness visit http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/vme/DrSue/raccoon2.html) The trap on left is how the trap comes from the manufacturer. The trap on the right has been modified with a spring (to reduce the shock when the raccoon lunges) and a double angle stake anchor system.

A live restraint device constructed of durable white nylon and steel with an enclosed trigger and casing that encapsulates the captured foot. This device demonstrates exceptional performance with animal welfare, safety, selectivity, and efficiency. Approximate Size: 3 ¾" in diameter and 4 ½" long Egg trap for raccoons

Tools to make the setting of the trap more efficient are still available. Egg Trap Tools Cost is 25 dollars post paid to the Continental U.S. (prices subject to change without notice) -e-mail us at info@aallanimalcontrol.com
